T0 all whom/t mag/concermr c Be it known that I, CHARLES -v T. KAM-rirnrnn, a citizen of the United States, residing at Niagara Falls, inthe county of Vlaliagara and State-of New York, have invented certainnew. and usefulA Improvements in Galley Ears land Proofs, 0i'- whichthei'ollowing is a specification.

This invention relatesV to improvements in printers appliances and hasfor its'object to provide a galley prooi' bar so constructed that anyportion of the matter on 'a galley proof may be instantly located uponits galley or rack. i

Another object of the invention is to provide a galley bar to be used inconnection with making galley proofssaid bar'having signs throughout itslength for indicating any portion of the matter in the galley or rack. yp

Another object of `the invention is to provide a Vgalley bar havingseries of signsV throughout its length, ynumbers of the bar arrangedthroughout its vlength and indicia y throughout its length to designatefor what particular job the matter on the galley is to be used with.v

With the above and such other'objects in view as may hereinaftermorefully appear, I have invented `the'device illustrated in theaccompanying drawings, in which,

Figure l is a plan viewof my galley bar usedin connection with a'galleyproof,

Figure 2 isa plan view of several similar bars shown broken away, and,

Figure 3'is a plan view of proof dummied up 'for the makeup. v

Like reference characters indicate like parts throughoutthe followingspecification and in the several views in the drawings in which lindicates a proof of my galley bar used in connection witha proof ofgalley matter 2, said barv is formed of a single strip ofmetallongitudinally divided into three columns 3, 4c and 5, the rstcolumn having inserted throughout its length thereon the word Courier, or any other suitable word to indicate any newspaper, periodical orpublication to which the particular piece of matter 2 belongs. Column 4has printed throughout its length in relatively large type, said type asshown in this particular instance being arranged in series of letters oithe alphabet arranged alphabetically from the top to the bottom of thebar and each series of letters being graduatedV from the largest letter7 to the smallest letter 8 in'size.4 The third column 5 is provided withthe-number of the particular bar, said number being duplicatedthroughout the G0 length of said column. It is to be understood that asmany of these bars as may be necessary for a printing4 otiice of anyparticular size may be used, each bar having a separate number andVpreferably arranged numerically iromone up, Figure 2 showing bars Number1,- 6 and 100.-'`

The dummy shownin Figure 3 clearly indicates how matter may be takenfromany particular numbered galley and used vfor making up the dummy and howsaid dummy will indicate instantly to the imposer just where to locateinstantly the matter of the dummy. j

A rack having numbered galley portions conforming to the corresponding-:numbers of the galley bars is preferably used in connection with thesebars so as to simplify the location of any matter desired.

-With this device anyvprinting plant can be thoroughly systematized inthis lpar- Vticular branch using this galley bar in connection withgalleys already on hand. The prevailing custom is to mark the galleynumber on each corresponding form of gal- S5 ley proof. This not onlyrequires considerable` time butoften errors arise 'from careless orobscure marking and although clearly and correctly marked and the galleyVfound, time is required to locate the matter 90 on the galley tocorrespond with the correspondingproof. For lack of time,rthe name ofthe particular publication is omitted in marking the clipping whichfurther Complicates matters and which is a veryv important feature andabsolutely necessary in large'plants where a number oit' differentpublications are issued within a given period. My galley bar as abovedescribed willf4 obviate the marking of the clipljiings and indicateinstantly not only the publication Y to which the matter belongs butalso its location on the rack and in the galley.

Example: One ot' my galley bars is placed against one side of eachgalley of matter to be proofed consequently each galley proof includesthe imprint ot the galley bar Vas indicated in Figure 1. ln making up adummy it often occurs that clippings a, b, c, d, etc., (see Figure 2)are taken from as many diilerent galley proofs and are used (pastedtogether) to indicate how a column, a page, or form of mattei' is to beimposed or made iup. In re'lerring Vto` the dummy oi Fig. 3, the imposerWill see at a glance that the matter belongsto the Cou- Y rier (see 6,coli'inin 3), he will also see that clipping a, is from galley 100;clipping Zi from galley l; clipping c, galley l; and

c ipping d, galley 6, etc; (see third column 5) making it very easy tolocate the type in; the dillerentt galleys. "llius, the -maler of vthedummy, is .saved the time usually re,`

quiredoijmarlingthe clippings, and the Vimposerisisaved thetime usually.spent .in

a series olf type throughout its ters thereon tor indicating in a galleyprooil the .particular location in said galley oit certain 'lines'therein.
